Good points:: Easy to use. Heats up quickly.
Bad points:: Probably don't need all the programmes! Tend to use the fan oven mainly. Still, others could be useful.

Julie, Family cook

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: It is a smart looking oven and so far, has performed well. I haven't used all of the modes on the oven yet but I made a sponge cake on the baking mode yesterday and it turned out great.
Bad points:: The only bad point I can find so far is that the temperature dial is badly designed. You have to almost get down on your hands and knees to see the temperature to put it on.

Good points:: Has plug attached so no need to have it wired in.
Lots of different settings so it looks like you can cook anything, including a pizza programme.

Product Features

Construction	Built-in
Built-in machines have a cabinet door attached to the front of them so that they look like the rest of your kitchen. Freestanding machines can be seen and the machine can be placed in any position in your kitchen.
Fuel	Electric
Oven cavity	Single

Main heating type	Convection or conventional
Conventional ovens heat from the bottom so the top of the oven will be slightly hotter than the bottom. This is useful when you’re cooking lots of different dishes at a time. However, they do take a little longer than fan ovens to heat up. Convection (or fan) ovens circulate the air so that you get an even temperature throughout the oven. They are quicker to heat up which means they save on energy and time. Multifunction (convection or conventional) ovens give you the flexibility to use different methods of cooking. They usually have both fan and conventional settings as well as pizza settings that will only cook from the bottom, giving you a crispy pizza, or top-only cooking that is very useful for browning.

Type of self cleaning	Catalytic
Self-cleaning ovens can come with catalytic liners or pyrolytic programmes. Calalytic liners are the bumpy surfaces which line the inside walls of the oven. They absorb the food and grease and break it down so that the oven is easier to clean. Pyrolytic programmes run for a couple of hours and burn off all the grime in your oven at temperatures up to 500°C. As it gets so hot, the oven door usually locks so that all you need to do is sweep up the ash that’s left over at the end.
Energy efficiency	A
The more efficient the product, the less energy it needs and the more you get for your money. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products are the least efficient.
